Expose a WordPress local web server to the internet ngrok allows you to expose a web server running on your local machine to the internet. This plugin works by hooking to the start and end of the page creation and capturing it into an output buffer, it then uses the URL from the database for a str_replace, stripping it out before sending back out to the shutdown hook. This means that I can share either the HTTP or HTTPS versions of the ngrok URLs. How To Use Step One: Install ngrok Download and install ngrok here https://ngrok.com/download Step Two: Install WP-NGROK Upload wp-ngrok.zip folder to the /wp-content/plugins/ directory Activate the plugin through the ‘Plugins’ menu in WordPress run command in your terminal ~/ngrok http -host-header=localdomain.test 8888 Step Three: Creating the localtunnel Send through the host name of the site that we use locally as well as the port number and this will then direct the traffic to my local site. This works whether we had created it, or using something like MAMP Pro to set this up for me. ~/ngrok http -host-header=sitename.localhost 8888 Once ngrok is up and running I will be presented with the display that you can see below Session Status online Account Theme.id (Plan: Pro) Version 2.3.35 Region United States (us) Web Interface http://127.0.0.1:4040 Forwarding http://yourapp.ngrok.io -> http://localhost:8888 Forwarding https://yourapp.ngrok.io -> http://localhost:8888 Minimum Requirements WordPress 5.0 or greater PHP version 5.6 or greater MySQL version 5.0 or greater We recommend your host supports: PHP version 7.0 or greater MySQL version 5.6 or greater WordPress Memory limit of 64 MB or greater (128 MB or higher is preferred) Please ask in WordPress Support Please to ask about this plugin
